a trickle down government approach which has government thinking it can do a better job than free people pursuing their dreams and it's not working and the proof of that is twenty three million people out of work the proof of that is one of the six people in poverty the proof of that is we've gone from thirty two million. to forty seven million of food stamps the proof of that is that fifty percent of college graduates this year can't find work. ok so we heard from mitt romney himself so apparently he does know that this problem does exist and he named those very dismissive. but yet most of the time first of all it was only very briefly touched upon and that most of the time they were talking about the middle class not to say that the middle class it isn't important in a lot needs to be done to help the middle class but obviously poverty is a huge huge problem in america. so why is it not discussed more good question liz you know as you rightfully say the numbers were mentioned the situation was mentioned in passing we saw romney bring this up of course obama was not talking about this b
